    Default Alternatives to Rpol.net?

    I am looking to make the shift from rpol.net to a different website in terms of hosting games.

    Does anyone know good play by post websites?

    I know this site has options but there's no way to keep a game private here...

    Myth Weavers is about as good as it gets. Online character sheets with in-game access, vibrant community.

    Alright, early vote for mythweavers! That's good to know because that site is one I have experience with already.

    Are there any options that include aliasing? I'm not too bothered with it but I've come into the habit of it with rpol

    Roll20.net can be used for games with voice chat, text chat, or play-by-post.

    For other PBP options, check out Rolegate and Tavern-Keeper.

    As a helpful way to determine what might prove best, how do each of these sites (or any others) handle multi-group games?

    I suppose on myth-weavers or here it's a matter of making different games with an overarching header or the like, but that doesn't work as well for short one-shots and the like
